4 Adjust the knob for the desired voltage limit.
[1]
Check that the Limit annunciator still flashes and the knob
is selected for voltage control. The flashing digit can be
changed using the resolution keys and the flashing digit
can be adjusted by turning the knob. Adjust the knob for
the desired voltage limit.
5 Adjust the knob for the desired output current.
[2]
Check that the Limit annunciator still flashes. Set the knob
for current control. Change the flashing digit using the
resolution selection keys and adjust the knob to the
desired output current.
6 Return to the meter mode.
Press or let the display time- out after several
seconds to return to the meter mode. Notice that the Limit
annunciator turns off and the display shows the OUTPUT
OFF message.
7 Enable the output.
The OFF annunciator turns off and the CC annunciator
turns on. Notice that the display is in the meter mode.
8 Verify that the power supply is in the constant
current mode.
If you operate the power supply in the constant current
(CC) mode, verify that the CC annunciator is lit. If the CV
annunciator is lit, choose a higher voltage limit.
NOTE
In constant current mode, the current values between the meter mode and
limit mode are the same, but the voltage values are not. Moreover, if the
display is in the meter mode, you cannot see the change of voltage limit
value when adjusting the knob. We recommend that you should set the
display to the limit mode to see the change of voltage limit value in the
constant current mode whenever adjusting the knob.
